RATIONALE

Developments in science and technology have improved our way of living and have become a major influence onour culture. No one in our culture escapes the direct influence of science. Because of the impact of scienceand technology on our social, economic, and political institutions, the education of every responsible citizenmust include not only the basic principles of science but also the attitudes and processes of scientificthought.

The nature of science itself determines the way that it should be taught. The definition of science is atwofold one: It is (1) an unending method or process of seeking new knowledge to answer questions of mecha-nisms but not purposes, and (2) the body of knowledge which results from this search. Science is an activeintellectual process which involves an investigator of any age and something to investigate. It is limited toinquiries of observable physical and social realities. Technology is the application of science to thesolution of practical problems. Technology is driven by science; and technology, in turn, influences science.

The discipline of science taught by the process approach teaches the student how to learn, and that intel-lectual gain is a permanent one for the student. Some students develop thinking skills in the normal courseof growing up in a complex world, but the acquisition of useful skills and attitudes is by no means automatic.Many students succeed in school by repeating what they are told in a slightly different form or by memorizing;such strategies are of little extended value. At present, relatively few students develop persistence in andzest for dealing with new concepts because they are not aware of their intellectual capabilities; thus,

students need literally to experience the application of skills in scientific processes in different situa-tions.

To be most effective, methods of both science instruction and industrial arts/technology education must bebased upon the development of skills in critical thinking. Guided practice in experimenting, observing,gathering information, organizing facts, and drawing conclusions will help to develop critical thinkingskills. Laboratory techniques should be employed whenever possible, and inquiry teaching/learning situationsusing both deductive and Inductive reasoning should be the predominant method used in nil classroomactivities. The teacher's role in a process-oriented science or industrial arts/technology classroom includesbeing a provider of problems, a discussion leader, a supplier of clues (when necessary), and a skillfulquestioner, i.e., a facilitator of learning activities. Thus> the aim of an effective science program shouldhe to equip each child with competencies in the basic processes and concepts of science through individualparticipation in activities and investigations specifically designed to develop such capabilities. Likewise,the aim of an effective industrial arts/technology education program should be to equip each student with theknowledge and appreciation of the importance of technology and of the safe and efficient application of tools,materials, and technological concepts. industrial arts/technology education should help the student deal withthe forces that influence the future, adjust to the changing environment, become a wiser consumer, and makeinformed career choices.

HOW TO USE THIS CURRICULUM GUIDE

The Principles of Technology Curriculum Guide contains the minimum competencies and skills which should hetaught in this course. Also the guide contains suggested activities designed to assist the teacher inpresenting each competency; however, the teacher and the students should not be limited to these activities,nor bound to use all of them. Each teacher should build on the foundation of these minimum competencies toestablish the maximum program. possible for his/her students using the teacher's guide which accompanies thetextbook.

Developments in science and technology have improved our way of living and have become a major influence onour culture. No one in our culture escapes the direct influence of science through its manifestation intechnological developments. The writers of this guide have attempted to produce an instrument which mergesscientific theories and laws with technological skills, a combination which should prepare students forvocations requiring such knowledge and skills or for advanced academic training in science and technology.

Principles of Technology is organized into seven sequential. units: Force, Work, Rate, Resistance, Energy,Power, and Force Transformers. It is important that the sequential nature of the course, as presented herein,he preserved if maximum benefit is to be realized from the course. The average unit will require the

equivalent of twenty-six fifty-minute class periods. The usual division of these periods will be

- unit overview class and unit summary class, with readings, video presentations, discussions, and unittest.

- eight class discussions that include reading assignments (four based on sub-unit video segments andfour based on hardware demonstrations).

- four "problem-solving" math labs.

- eight hands-on physics labs emphasizing the scientific method.

- four review periods (repeating the use of the four sub-unit video segments).

A more detailed discussion of the approaches to teaching Principles of Technology is found in the appendix tothis guide.

This course is designed to be taught by teachers with certification in Industrial Arts and/or Physical14 Sciences (Physical Science-Physics). It is suggested that a team-teaching approach be used during at least

the first year of implementation in each school. It is also suggested that science teachers present lectures

and demonstrations related to the principles of mathematics, physics, and industrial arts. When using theteam teaching approach with this guide, science teachers should be responsible for teaching specific skillsand math activities, while Industrial Arts teachers should be responsible for Suggested Activities. Theteachers should conduct hands-on labs. Team teaching is most successful when the two teachers sit in on eachother's classes. Release time during the first year of instruction will be required for the teachers to getlabs organized and lesson plans prepared. Since the success of this course is highly dependent on labtivities, it is strongly recommended that the equipment and materials listed in Appendix E of this guide be

purchased before implementation of this course.

An understanding of the instructional system which is presented in this guide is required before attempting toteach the course.

Like any other curriculum, this one is easiest to implement under the conditions for which it was designed.Basiclly, one has three tools with which to do this teaching job:

1. The student text, systematically divided into seven units. Each unit covers one technical concept.Each sub-unit explains the concept and how it applies in one of the four energy systems.Each rectangular symbol represents 50 minutes of instruction. Most units require 26 sessions. Thefirst two sessions (Cl and C2) of the sub-unit include the video presentation andlecture/discussions; the third (M) is the math lab; the next two (Li and L2) are hands-on labs. Thesixth session (R) is a review of the material.

The video._ Video segments provide direct instruction about the principles and systems, therebyintroducing and explaining the ideas presented in the text. It is suggested that the teacher takethe students to workplace settings where technicians are employed in order to help put variety inthe course.

3. The teacher's guide. This portion of the learning package gives suggestions for teaching the classon a page-by-page basis.

One should keep in mind that the teacher's guide is not a set of rigid rules. It cannot substitutefor the teacher's ingenuity and creativity in teaching this class.

A detailed teaching schedule for each unit of instruction which is coordinated with this curriculum guide willbe found in Section T-16 of Appendix A.

The writers of this guide have endeavored to provide a concise, well-organized course description which, willhelp make the course presentation a rewarding experience for both the teacher and the students.

While the overriding goal of industrial arts is to nsri$1t Atudelits indevet,Tine :70ward successful adulthood through the development of their socio-economic awnriltess, theirinterest:, their abilities, and their understanding of industry and technology and their potential asciti:tenm, ether supporting goals are listed below:

1. To develop in each student an understanding of industry and the free enterprise system and theirrelationship to society through a coordinated program of study focusing on the principles andpractices of industry.

2. To assist students in developing their talents, aptitudes, interests, and potentials as a part ofthe school's responsibility to assist each student in developing to his/her fullest potential.

3. To develop in each student an understanding of industrial processes and the practical application ofscientific principles.

4. To develop problem-solving abilities related to the materials, processes, and pri.ducts of industry.The problem-solving approach as applied in industrial arts/technology education involves creativethinking and gives the student an opportunity to apply principles and processes of the scientificmethod, along with supporting activities, to the solution of problems.

5. To develop in each student skills in the proper and safe use of the tools, materials, and machinescommon to industrial processes. These skills are acquired through planning, construction, andproduction activities centered around industrial-technical processes and products.

6. To develop in students attitudes toward career opportunities that will enhance their chances ofsuccess as they progress through the career preparation process. Students should he prepared tomake informed career decisions resulting in satisfactory and rewarding job selection.

Depending on their content and focus, these six goals are applicable to all grade levels (K-12) and to adultprograms and to all segments of the student population, including but not limited to the gifted, the slowlearner, and the handicapped. These goals are consistent with and supportive of the roles identified fort 0industrial arts in Title TI of P1.98-524, The Cnil Perkins Act of 1984. L.

GOALS FOR SENIOR HIGH SCHOOL

Industrial arts/technology education programs should be an articulated set of offerings in both vertical andhorizontal directions. This will ensure reasonable content progression and program focus.

Industrial arts/technology education at the senior high school level provides concentrated and somewhatspecialized technical courses designed to meet the industrially-related consumer needs of secondary students,as well as preparing students for enrollment in advanced vocational-technical programs. High school programsmay use combinations of general and unit organization as a part of their delivery system. At this level,elective options are important because they help students to expand their career awareness, technologicalliteracy, consumer skills, and skills and knowledges related to the world of work. Such options play asignificant role in assisting students in making job-related decisions as they progress through the formaleducation system. Students in the upper grades evidence a wide range of interests, abilities, and life goals.With this in mind, designers of industrial arts/technology education programs must provide courses thatattempt to address the widest possible range of the students' needs and interests. In the industrialarts/technology education program, not all students will study the same depth or type of content. Forexample, courses and content may be tailored to a student who will find it necessary to exit school prior tothe normal completion time or who may be involved in advanced vocational-technical training as a portion ofthe regular high school program. Industrial arts/technology education at the high school level will addressthe following types of student needs:

1. To provide basic instruction for: (a) the elective student who seeks to explore more deeply theavocationalA cultural, and consumer aspects of American industry, (b) those students who will pursueadvanced education in areas of vocational, technical, industrial education, and the appliedsciences, and (c) the reluctant learner, the prospective dropout, the culturally unique, and thosestudents who may be entering the labor force either prior to normal graduation or immediatelythereafter.

2. To provide the students with practical and realistic learning situations that simulate theworld of industrial work.

3. To develop in all students those attitudes and attributes that will assist them in becomingproductive members of society.

GOALS OF TEACHING SCIENCE

Science Literacy

The primary goal of science courses in grades K-I2 is to promote science literacy. Before determining whatshould be taught, science literacy should be defined. Science literacy Is the ability to perceive, compre-hend, interpret, explain, and predict natural phenomena and to demonstrate such ability technologically. Manyscience educators recommend that science literacy should be not a separate entity but an integral component ofthe total curriculum. The perception, comprehension, interpretation, explanation, and prediction of a pheno-menon should be fused into every area of the curriculum.

According to most science educators, a scientifically literate citizen should be:

1. aware that science is concerned with the empirical universe.

2. able to read accounts of developments by the scientific community.

3. aware that knowledge developed in the scientific community is probable rather than absolute.

4. aware of the difference between theoretical and empirical concepts and laws.

5. aware of how both empirical and theoretical concepts and laws come into being.

6. aware of the scientifically accepted regulatory principles.

7. aware that theoretical and empirical laws may be descriptive, comparative, or quantitative.

8. able to use theoretical laws in unifying empirical laws.

9. able to use empirical concepts and laws in a constant adjustment to the environment.

10. mbYr t. vr.plain and to predict events in the environment in a rational manner.

H. able to translate experience of the natural world into knowledge.

(.1.14,4 12. able to communicate with other citizens about knowledge and ideas about natural objects and phenomena.

13. able to communicate with other citizens about the use or control of natural objects or forces.xii

Specific Goals

AcUleving science literacy involves attitudes, process skills, concepts, and social aspects of science andtechnology. This literacy is linked to a global awarenesg that knowledge is increasing at a tremendous rateand that this rapid increase affects society in a great variety of ways. Rased upon this belief, the follow-ing major goals of science are stated:

1. Fostering Positive Attitudes; Toward Science and the Scientific Process

Developing a deep appreciation of the role of science and the scientific process will influence the waystudents think about the environment and about their effect on the environment.

2. Developing Process Skills

The development of process skills is an integral part of science activities for students. Students should begiven opportunities to develop the intellectual processes of inquiry and thought by which scientific phenom-ena are explained, measured, predicted, organized, and communicated. These experiences will serve to rein-force scientific concepts.

Basic Scientific Process Skills used in solving problems and making decisions include observing, inferring,classifying, using numbers, measuring, using space-time relationships, communicating, predicting, and design-ing experiments. Integrated Process Skills include controlling variables, defining operationally, formulatinghypotheses, interpreting data, and experimenting.

3. Acquiring Knowledge

Included in the basic science curriculum are those scientific concepts, principles, theories, and laws thatwill enable the students to understand and interpret natural phenomena. Applying scientific concepts, prin-ciples, theories, and laws requires the understanding of cause-effect relationships; energy-matter relation-ships; time-space relationships; revolutionary, evolutionary, or catastrophic change; interaction of vari-ables; systems; symmetry; and equilibrium.

4. Recognizing the Interaction of Science, Technology, and Society

The students should (a) understand the interrelationships of science, technology, and social and economicdevelopment, (b) recognize both the limitations and the usefulness of science and technology in advancinghuman welfare, and (c) understand the concept of global ethics when new technologies arc used. Science andtechnology are difficult to separate because scientists often develop new technology and new technologyproduces new avenues for scientists to obtain new knowledge. Changes in science and technology may not alwaysimprove society and may be the subject of moral, religious, and/or ethical questions. Such conproversialissues cannot be solved in a science classroom but may be discussed. tr, J

PRIMARY i'ROCCS:: SKTL!.:1

Within the framework of the science classroom, nine basic proc.:is s',.il1s are stressed: (1) oh1erving, 12)

inferring, (3) classifying, (4) recognizing number relations, (5) mthsnring, (6) recognizing space-timerelationships, (7) communicating, (B) predicting, and (9) decision making. There is a progressive intel-lectual development with each process. A brief description Of each hhsic process follows:

OBSERVING

Observing is the use of one or more of the five senses to perceive properties of objects or events asthey are. Statements about observations should be (1) quantitative where possible, (2) descriptiveregarding change(s) and rates of change(s), and (3) free of interpretations, assumptions, or inferences.

INFERRING

Inferring is making statements about objects or events based on observations which are not the result ofdirect perception. Inferences may or may not be accurate interpretations or explanations of observa-tions. Inferences are based on (1) observation, (2) reasoning, and (3) past experience of the observer.Inferences require evaluations and judgment. Inferences based on one set of observations may suggestfurther observation which in turn requires modification of original inferences. Inferences lead to

predictions.

CLASSIFYING

Classifying is the grouping or ordering of phenomena according to an established schcle. Objects andevents may be classified on the basis of observations. Classification schemes nre based on observablesimilarities and differences in arbitrarily selected properties. Classification IzeT, ,re Imee to placeitems within a scheme as well as to retrieve information from a scher.n.

Page 17: files.eric.ed.gov · (Physics) ABSTRACT. This document describes minimum competencies and suggested student activities for a seven-unit course called Principles of Technology. The

RECOGNIZING SPACE/TIME

Recognizing space-time relationships is the process that develops skills in the description of spatialrelationships and their changes with time. It includes the study of shapes, time, direction, spatialarrangement, symmetry, motion, and rate of change.

COMMUNICATING

Communicating is to pass information from one person to another. Communications may be oral, nonverbal(e.g., gestures), written, or pictorial (pictures, maps, charts, and graphs). Communications should beconcise, accurate, clear, and precise descriptions of what is perceived.

PREDICTING

Predicting is forecasting what future observations might be; it is closely related to observing, infer-ring, and classifying. The reliability of predictions depends upon the accuracy of past and presentobservations and upon the nature of the event being predicted.

DECISION-MAKING SKILLS

Decision-making skills are based on evaluation and synthesis. Decision-making is one link from scienceto other areas of the curriculum. Value judgments generally should be based on accurate informationobtained scientifically. Evaluation implies value judgment based on many factors. Within the frameworkof environmental science, many evaluations must be made. Decisions, especially those having social,political, or ecpnomic consequences, are seldom made with only scientific considerations.

As basic progressive, intellectual development proceeds in each process skill, the interrelated nature ofthe processes is manifested in the five integrated processes: (1) controlling variables, (2) definingoperationally, (3) formulating hypotheses, (4) interpreting data, and (5) experimenting. A brief de-scription of each integrated process follows:

CONTROLLING VARIABLES TO ANALYZE SYSTEMS AND FORMULATE MODELS

A variable is any factor in a situation that may change or vary. Investigators in science and otherdisciplines try to determine what variables influence the behavior of a system by manipulating onevariable, called the manipulated (independent) variable, and measuring its effect on another variable,called the responding (dependent) variable. As this is done, all other variables are held constant. If

there is a change in only one variable and an effect is produced on another variable, the investignrorcan conclude that the effect has been brought about by the changes in the manipulated variable. If morethan one variable changes, there can be no certainty at all about which of the changint; variables cruisesthe effect on the responding variable.

DEFINING OPERATIONALLY BY GATHERING AND PROCESSING; INFORMATION

To define operationally is to choose a procedure for measuring a varble. 1n a scientific investiga-tion, measurements of the variables are made; however, the invesLiAutor must decide how to measure eachvariable. An operational definition of a variable is a definition deo:rmined by the investigator for thepurpose of measuring the variable during an investigation; thus, different operational definitions of thesame variable may be used by different investigators.

FORMULATING AND USING DEDUCTIVE-NORMATIVE EXPLANATIONS

To formulate a hypothesis is to make a gueSs about the relationships Lo:ween variables. A hypothesis isusually stated before any sensible investigation or experiment is performed because the hypothesisprovides guidance to an investigator about the data to collect. A hypothc,sis is an expression of whatthe investigator thinks will be the effect of the manipulated variab,e on the responding variable. Aworkable hypothesis is stated in such a way that, upon testing, its credibility can be established.

INTERPRETING AND COMMUNICATING SCIENTIFIC INFORMATION

The process of interpreting data may include many behaviors such as (1) recording data in a table, (2)constructing bar or line graphs, (3) making and interpreting frequency distributions, (4) determining themedian, mode, and range of a set of data, (5) using slope or analytical equations to interpret graphs,and (6) constructing number sentences describing relationships between two variables. Interpreting datarequires going bpyond the use of the skills of tabulating, charting, and graphing to ask questions aboutthe data which lead to the construction of inferences and hypotheses. Interpretations are always subjectto revision in the light of new or more refined data.

EXPERIMENTING USING INTEGRATED PROCESS SKILLS

Experimenting is the process of designing a procedure that incorporateti both the basic and. the integratedprocess skills. An experiment may begin as a question for the purpose of testing a hypothesis. Thebasic components of experimenting are:

1. Constructing a hypothesis based on a set of data collected by the investigator from observations andinferences.

2. Testing the hypothesis. The variables must be identified and controlled as much as poss1%!,e. nit1must be collected and recorded.

3. Describing or interpreting how the data support or do not suri;%rt !:13,pcsts 1, .i.:" .

How's This Teacher's Guide Organized?Welcome to the teaching of Principles of Technology (PT). The Teacher's Guide to this course consists

essentially of these introductory pages. the student text. a large number of separate teacherguide pages andan Appendix. Why is this arrangement used? Because the Principles of Technology course invni4es the use ofvideo. laboratories. student readings and exercises. teacher demonstrations and discussions. This Teacher'sGuide provides you with a means to orchestrate these elements.

For example. you'll find the student text on right-hand. consecutively numbered pages. All pages in theGuide designated with a "T" before the page number present teaching suggestions. content notes andanswers to questions. (See Figure 1 below.) There are Teaching Paths preceding each activity within the unit.The "T" designator indicates pages that have been written to the teacher. Pages with the "T" designator arenot part of the student text.

Why Is There A Need For Principles of Technology?

Prmciple:: of Technology is an up-todate. technoIogicailv sovrisccated system bit instruction. PTincreases the flexibility of students entering the lob market and tnereb% ncreases their chances of findingemploymentand of retraining themselves as their careers develoo. n addition the twovear Course is.structured to meet the criteria for accreditation in both general academic high schools and %ocational schools.PT provides instruction in the fundamental principles or technology. The need for a course like PT has beenexpressed by many persons in vocational erlucation. inc!uding tie National Commission on Secondaryvocational Education.

The central idea of this curriculum is that a technically valid. unirving approach is beneficial in the studyor the basic energy systemsmechanical. fluid, electrical and thermai This approach is achieved by showingthat principles such as force. work. rate and resistance operate in a °mallet way among most systems. asindicated in Figure 2.

How Was Principles of Technology Developed?

Prnc;p1ri Of Tecnnologs is the result of three years of development. It represents the cooperative effort..)r, sortiurn of o,.er 43 state and provincial vocational education agencies. the Center for Occupational

Research and Development ICORD). and the Agency for lnstructionai Technology (AM.

During ue ,elopment. CORD and MT prepared drafts of print materials. scripts of video materials. and;mix videos. These materials were reviewed by an independent eight member team of specialists enkocationat education and instructional media. as well as by the state and Provincial consortium agency?1:3reWnta:IVeS. Of cPutse, teachers were instrumental in the process of creating Principles of Technology. In'act teachers were crucial members of the PT ream during the pilot research. They provided data and maderi-..comrnendations that resulted in modification of the instructional media. Thus. Principles of Technologywasto a large extenttailored by experienced teachers.

Pr.ncioles of Technology is based on the Unified Technical Concepts (UTC) curriculum developed byCORD. UTC is postsecondary instruction in applied physics that is taught at community colleges. technicalschools and a part of industry training programs.

Who Developed Principles of Technology?

Principles of Technology was developed by a consortium of 43 U.S. states and Canadian provinces.Protect staff consisted cf a team from two nonprofit organizations: the Agency for Instructional Technology.or Bloomington, Indiana. and the Center for Occupational Research and Development. of Waco. Texas.

The Agency for instructional Technology (AM is a nonprofit American-Canadian organizationestablished in 1973 to strengthen education through technology. In cooperation with state and provincialagencies, MT develops instructional materials using television and computers. AlT also acquires anddistributes a wide variety of television. related print, and computer materials for use as major learningresources. It makes many of these materials available in audiovisual formats. From April 1973 to July 1984,AlT was known as the Agency for Instructional Television, Its predecessor organization. NationalInstructional Television. was founded in 1962.

The Center for Occupational Research and Development (CORD conducts research and developmentactivities and disseminated curricula for technical and occupational training. During its 10-year history,CORD has developed over 46,000 pages of instructional materials for technicians on 16 major projects inadanced-technology areas. CORD projects are sponsored by contracts with federal and state agencies andgroups of interested educators and industries. CORD products are used by industrial vocational high schoolprograms throughout the world.

In develop:rig the i 4 student texts and 14 teacher's guides of Principle, of Technology. CORD ensuredthat the content was bath current and broad so that students would be prepared to meet the changingdemands or tne technical workplace. CORD recognized that only a course of study emphasizing basicphysical principles and related fundamental mathematics could achieve this goal.

The 80 Princioies.of Technology video programs created by All enliven the print material bydemonstrating its real world application and showing on-the-job technicians who explain how technicalprinciples apply to what they do. In collaboration and with careful thought. CORD and All have combinedvaried methods and media to develop logical, pedagogically sound materials that bring students into theworld of work.

Principles of 'Tee nology labs give students hands-on experience as they develop physics andmathematics skills and learn the way these skills relate to specific occupations. Both remedial and advancedlewning paths are available to Principles of Technology students. Work with classroom pilot-teachers andstudents contributed greatly to the refining of the course and augmented the regular activities of review teammembers. Finally. important advice of curriculum design came from the consortium's state and provincial.ocationai education leaders.

Now Do You Begin To TeachPrinciples of Technology?

Principles of Technology PT) is a high school course in applied physics for those who to pursuecareers as techniciansor rust keep pace with the advances in modern technology. PT blends anunderstanding of basics and principles with practice. Furthermore. PT builds a firm foundation forunderstanding technologywith today's technology and tomorrow's technology.

In content, PT is a two-year course that has 14 units. Each unit is devoted to the study of an imoonantconcept that undergirds technologya concept like force, work, rate. resistance. energy or power. Eachunit explains what the principle is and how it's used in mechanical, fluid, electrical and thermal systems.Each unit builds on the knowledge learned in the previous unit. Thus, the 14 units. when taken together, helpone understand modern. interdisciplinary systemslike robotswhere mechanical, fluid, electrical andthermal devices often work together. and where many important principles are applied.

What Are The General Course Characteristics?

I. GoalsA. Students will learn principles of technology and will use the associated mathematics.B. Students will recognize that technicians must understand basic ;ethnical principles,

that these principles undergird the world of technology, and that these principles applyto the mechanical, fluid, electrical and thermal energy systems found in technologicaldevices.

C. Students will develop confidence in their ability to understand and apply scientificconcepts and principles.

II. Educational and Vocational Utility of PTA. PT supports and strengthens current vocational technical programs over a two-year

sequence, usually beginning at the eleventh-grade level and continuing through thetwelfth grade. (PT may be adapted by schools for use prior to the eleventh-grade levelor subsequent to the twelfth grade.)

B. PT better prepares students for future technical education in emplo,,erbased trainingprograms and postsecondary schools.

C. PT satisfies one or two years of the science requirement for high school graduationin most states and provinces.

Target AudienceA. Students

Note that this is a general plan. Different units will have different plans. Thus. Unit 1. "Force." ispreceded by an extra class that provides an introduction and overview or the entire course. after this initialclass, the general plan is the same. In subsequent units. the first class is devoted to an introduction andoverview of the unitrather than the course. This "Unit Overview" class is. of course. shown in Table 1. ;Seethe Breakdown of "Force at the beginning of Unit I.) The teaching pattern depends on how many subunitsare included in the unit. (See Figure 2 on previous page.)

The last class of each unitgenerally the 26th classis designed for a unit review/summary and test.The 24 or so intervening classes are divided into four subunits of six classes each.

has been given to cost factors. the utility, & equipment for multi. use and the eduicirnent's adapiabiiity forlearning/illustrating the technical concepts presented in Pnncbles of Technology.

IV. Speaking of ProblemsNote again, that this Guide is only a Guide a nd cannot substitute for your own experience and

ingenuity in solving problems that may arise in teaching thisor any oth-lrcourse. Here are samples ofsome of the problems that nave come up during the PT pilot testand some of the solutions discoveredby PT teachers.

"What if the proper laboratory equipment is not available?-

In this case. you might improvise the "next best" equipment: do another experiment forwhich equipment is available: or. as a last resort. describe the experiment. its purpose. and itsexpected outcome.

"What if the class falls behind schedule?"

In this case, you might combine two classesCI and C2 for examplebut you shouldavoid changing the suggested sequence of instruction. iBut don't forget. the schedule is justa guide.)

"What if there are too few lab stations. say three for 15 students?"

In this case, you might have students take turns. doing labs on different days: you mighthave students work together in pairs or teams: or you might divide the class in half, part of themdoing one lab while the rest are doing another and then changing places.

-What if there's a wide diversity of student ability?"

Many pilot test teachers have discovered that this situation provides a perfect opportunityto utilize peer teaching.

"What if 1 feel weak in teaching physics or mathematics?"

In this case, you might want to arrange to team teach the course with a physics ormathematics teacher or arrange for a physics or mathematics teacher to come in only when neededas a resource person.

Other sources of help include your principal. other administrative personnel, other teachers whohave already taught Principles of Technology, colleagues who are implementing Principles of TechnoiolA inother schools. your state or provincial consortium representativeas well as CORD and/or AIT.

If you need help with Principles of Technology, contact your state or provincial consortiumrepresentative or call CORD at 1/800/231-3015. CORD developed the print portions of the course.Call AlT at 118001457-4509. MT developed the video.

It's to your advantage to explore the nature and availability of these potential sources of help evenbefore you need help on a serious problem. You will then know to whom you can turn and what help you canexpect when the need arises.

And now, best wishes for a good experience teaching Principles of Technology. We hope that you findsatisfaction in knowing that you are one of those who work to advance vocational education, who preparestudents for the new "technological society." and who find personal enjoyment in teaching this course.

SUMMARY OF THE VIDEO

This video program introduces students. and others who may view ut, to Princ!oie,sof Technology It explains how. in the world of modern technology. one can besuccessful if he or she understands the technical principles and concepts being appliedin the workplace. The viewer learns that it important to understand the science behindthe technology.

A preview of upcoming video segments and studentteacher classroom eventsshows students what to exoect as they work their way through the course.

Viewers will learn now the principles of technology" are toois for the brains ofmodern techniciansand how trey')) be using these tools in classroom discussions andlaboratory hands-on experiments tmath and science).

Students will learn that a system in any combination of parts will work together todo a specific job. The video shows exampies or mechanical, fluid, electrical and thermalsystems. These systems act in similar ways. Basic principles such as force, rate andresistance all operate "across the four systems."

The program tells viewers what's covered in the 14 units of the course. The videoconcludes by stressing that anyone who understands what makes things work will bebetter prepared to meet the changes tomorrow's technology will bring, since"technological literacy" means incorporating change and new information throughoutone's lifetime.

DISCUSSION QUESTIONS ABOUT THE VIDEO :

1. How have technician jobs changed in the last several Years? (Advancedtechnology has resulted in improving the performance of equipment. Because ofthese improvements, technicians must be familiar with several technical areasrather than learning a traditional skill area.)How would an understanding of the Principles of Technology benefit a recent PTgraduate when heishe applies for a job sn a technological field? The trainingrequired fora specific job will be minimized. since basic principles are alreadyknown and only particular job skills need to be learned.)

3. When technology changes and gets more complicated. which technicians wiil bebest able to cope with the changes? (Those technicians who nave a reservoir ofbasic technology principles to draw upon will be best able to cope with change.This ability will allow the technician to have the ability to change and adapt to newinformation.)

Teaching Paths are numbered as 1" pages. Teaching Paths usually are on theright -hand side of your Guide and have lines running vertically ithe length ofthe page) to help you locate them. The Teaching Path for the subunit review ison the left. You'll find a synopsis of each video segment behind the TelchingPath for the Overview. one for each subunit. and one for the Summary ofUnit 1. leaching Paths precede each section within each subunit: ,Overview!0): CI. C2: Math Skills Lab 'M1: and Application Lab 1 (Lt). Application Lab 2L21. the Review (R1 and the Summary IS).

Hints about the materials in the student text are usually located on the 'eft.1-.and side of your Guide. These Pages are designated with a "T." The answersto questions within the student materials are also on these "T" pages.

The Glossary is also part of the student materials. You may wish to remindyour students that they must understand the vocabulary in order to under.stand the units of this course. Because this understanding is so important, youmay wish to discuss the words in the Glossary with your students beforeorduringtheir study of Unit 1.

These activities will assist your teaching of necessary math skills for Unit 1, iiyou wish. you may omit these activities. The Preparatory Math Skills Labs arepart of the student text and are located in an Appendix for easy studentreference.

These questions are part of the student text. They will rest your students'knowledge of the material in this unit.

Demonstrations are located at the back or your Guide in the Appendix, Theretore, these pages are prefixed with a "D." There's a demonstration activitytor each subunit of Unit 1. We suggest that you conduct the demonstration asa part of Class C2: however, some instructors elect to let students do the dem.onstration as a peer teaching experience Please note A CAUTIONS withinthe demonstrations and throughout the student text.

ABOUT THE VIDEO, 'OVERVIEW FORCE"

BEFORE THE VIDEO

As students the following question:

. What is the principal characteristic of a force or forcelike quantity(the prime mover)?

tell students that they're going to see a video program about force.

Students should pay attention to (1) the characteristics of forces. and (2)

the ways pressure, voltage and temperature difference are similar to force.

Pressure, voltage and temperature difference are Called "forcelike guan.

titles," because of these similarities.

SUWON OF THE VIDEO

This video segment introduces force as a push or pull that can cause

change in the motion or shape of an object. Using examples from everyday

life and the Orld of technology, the program shows that force can cause an

object to start moving, stop movingor to move in a different direction. A

force can also change the shape of an object, as ween a car is put into a

Crusher or when a person crushes a soft drink can.

Pressure, voltage and temperature difference are prime movers that act

like forces. Each causes movement within its own kind of system: mechani-

cal, fluid, thermal or electrical. Blood flows through our bodies and water

Mies through pipes because of pressure. Voltage causes the movement of

electrons. This movement may be through wires and circuits, and.-in part. -

makes possible the technology that allows us to produce video programs. Heat

energy moves from warmer to colder areas because of temperature difference.

Because modern technology often combines mechanical, electrical, thermal

and fluid systems in complex devices. technicians must understand all four

systems and the similarities among the four orime movers.-force, pressure,

voltage and temperature difference.

DISCUSSION QUESTIONS ABOUT TIE VIDEO

1. Describe a force. (A force is a push or a pull that can cause an object

to move, continue to move, change direction. stop moving or slow down,

or changes the shape of the object.)

What do force, pressure, voltage and temperature difference have in

common? (They have the same function in different energy systems and

act as prime movers.)

3, How does an understanding of forces help technicians? (All work is

based on applying forceS, so technicians must understand force as the

prime mover in all systems.)

OVERVIEW : OCCUPATIONAL INFORMATION

The selection of an occupation is one of the most important decisions in aperson's life. For the young preparing for a career, questions abound asto what skills are required in each field and how chose skills may be at-tained or refined. Furthermore, while ylu may be aware of your own in-terests and abilities, you face the perplexing choice of selecting a fieldwhich promises the greatest economic and personal satisfaction.

How much training does it cake to enter a particular occupation? Is ex-perience important? How much can I expect to earn? Is it difficult tofind a job in this field? Finding the answers can be difficult. However,more resources are available than ever before to help you make an informedcareer choice.

Each unit will contain occupational information on 46 different technicalpositions. The information shall be brief and to the point, and studentsdesiring additional information should contact their guidance departmentor public library for these particular refererices:

1. Occupational Outlook Handbook, published and revised every twoyears by U.S. Department of Labor, 3ureau of Labor Statistics.

2. Dictionary of Occupational Titles (D.O.T.) published by U.S.Department of Labor (fourth edition).

3. Many trade associations, professional societies, trade unions,industrial organizations, and state and federal governmentagencies are able to provide career information that is valuableand up to dace.

4. North Carolina Careers is a microcomputerized, comprehensivecareer guidance system designed co find occupations that matchthe student's own personality characteristics and preferences.North Carolina Careers also provides in-depth, accurate, andup-co-date information on 300 occupations and 143 training sites.

Technologists and Technicians. Technologists and technicians provide thetechnical assistance necessary for engineering, computer, library, legal,and similar professional activities. They focus on the practical elementsof a job, leaving.the policy, theory, and design aspects to others.

Technologists and technicians perform the day-to-day tasks needed to carryout a project or run an operation. They may operate testing and measuringequipment in a laboratory; make drawings of new designs; build models ofnew projects; program computers; or guide airplanes to their destinations.They are employed in nearly every industry, wherever technical assistancein a specialized area is needed.

Most technologists and technicians work closely with and are supervised byprofessional workers; for example, engineering technicians work with engi-neers. They are usually part of a team that is engaged in a particularproject or operation.

In most specialities, technologists and technicians use complex electronicor mechanical instruments, technical manuals, or other specialized materials.Because of the diversity of technologists and technician occupations, train-ing requirements vary widely. A high school diploma is a minimum requisite;most jobs, in fact, require specialized postsecondary training. Trainingis offered at junior and community colleges, technical institutes, voca-tional schools, and extension divisions of colleges and universities. Theseprograms usually emphasize practical courses and "hands-on" experience ina particular specialty. Programs vary in length. For example, most legalassistant programs require two years' work. On the other hand, programmerscomplete four-year bachelor's degree programs.

In addition to acquiring a formal education, technologists and techniciansoften receive on-the-job training; for example, programmers generally workunder close supervision for several months. Occasionally, technologistsand technicians take additional courses to keep abreast of technologicaladvances in their specialty.

The knowledge and personal characteristics required in these jobs vary, butmost technologists and technicians need a good foundation in mathematicsand the basic sciences--physias, chemistry,.and biology. They must be ableto apply practical knowledge to solve particular problems. Because theyare often part of a team, technologists and technicians must follow direc-tions well and effectively communicate their findings to.ochers. They mustbe patient, precise, and organized in their work habits. Also, most needmanual dexterity. to work with various kinds of equipment.

Broadcast Technicians. Broadcast technicians operate and maintain the elec-tronic equipment used to record and transmit radio and television programs.They work with microphones, sound and video tape recorders, light and soundeffects,Itelevision cameras, transmitters, and other equipment.

In the control room of the radio or television broadcasting studio, thesetechnicians operate equipment that regulates the signal strength, clarity,and range of sounds and colors in the material being recorded or broadcast.They also operate control panels that select the source of the materialsbeing broadcast. Technicians may switch from one camera or studio to another,from film to live programming, or from network to local. programs. By meansof hand signals in television and by use of telephone headsets, they givetechnical directions to personnel in the studio.

When events outside the studio are to be broadcast, technicians go to thesite and set up, test, and operate the remote equipment. After the broad-cast, they dismantle the equipment and return it to the station.

As a rule, broadcast technicians in small stations perform a variety ofduties. In large stations and at networks, on the other hand, techniciansare more specialized, although specific job assignments may change from dayto day.

Transmitter operators monitor and log outgoing signals and are respon-sible for operating the transmitter.

1aintengnce technicians set up, adjust, service, and repair electronicbroadcasting equipment.

Audio control engineers regulate sound pickup, transmission, and switching.

Video control engineers regulate the quality, brightness, and contrastof television pictures.

Recording engineers operate and maintain video and sound-recordingequipment.

Field technicians set up and operate broadcasting equipment.

Some technicians operate equipment designed to produce special effects, suchas the illusion of a bolt of lightning or the sound of police sirens, whenprograms originate outside the studio. The terms "operator," "engineer,"and "technician" often are used interchangeably in describing the above jobs.

Supervisory personnel with job titles such as chief engineer or transmissionengineer direct activities concerned with the operation and maintenance ofstudio broadcasting equipment.

Training, Other Qualifications, and Advancement

Federal law requires that anyone who operates broadcast transmitters in radioand television stations must have a restricted radiotelephone operator permitfor which no examination is required. A person who works with microwave or otherinternal radio communications equipment, however, must have a general radio-telephone operator license, issued after the applicant passes a series ofwritten examinations. These cover communications law and regulations, radiooperating practices, and basic communications electronics.

Technical school, community college, or college training in engineering orelectronics is the best way to prepare for a broadcast technician job, par-ticularly for those who hope to advance to supervisory positions or to themore specialized jobs in large stations and in the networks. High schoolcourses in algebra, trigonometry, physics, electronics, and other sciencesalso provide valuable background for a career in this occupation. Buildingelectronic hobby kits and operating a "ham" or amateur radio also are goodintroductions to broadcasting technology. Some persons gain work experienceas temporary employees while filling in for regular broadcast technicians whoare on vacation.

Broadcast technicians must have an aptitude for working with electrical and,mechanical systems and equipment. Manual dexterity - the ability to performtasks requiring precise, coordinated hand movements - is necessary for successin this occupation.

Entry level workers are instructed and supervised by the chief engineer, or byother experienced technicians, concerning the work procedures of the station.They generally begin their careers in small stations, operating the transmitterand handling o:her technical duties after a brief instruction period. As theyacquire more experience and skill, they are assigned to more responsible jobs.Those who demonstrate above-average ability nay move into top-level technicalpositions such as supervisory technician or chief engineer. A college degreein engineering is becoming increasingly important for advancement to super-visory and executive positions.

Related Occupations

Broadcast technicians need the electronics training and hand coordinationnecessary to operate technical equipment; they generally complete specializedpostsecondary programs, including courses in electronics and engineering.Others whose jobs have similar requirements include drafters, engineering andscience technicians, surveyors, air traffic controllers, radiologic tech-nologists, respiratory therapy workers, electrocardiograph technicians, electro-encephalographic technicians, and medical laboratory technicians.

Technical Writers. An instructional program that describes the theory,methods, and skills needed for writing scientific, technical papers andmonographs.

Technical writers put scientific and technical information into readilyunderstandable language. They prepare manuals, catalogs, parts lists, andinstructional materials used by sales representatives to sell machinery orscientific equipment and for use by technicians to install, maintain, andservice equipment.

Technical writing requires a knowledge about specialized fields such aselectronics, mechanics, chemistry, or one of the other sciences. Relativelyfew technical writers enter the occupation directly from school. The major-ity work initially in areas of less responsibility. Some begin as researchassistants, editorial assistants, or trainees in a company's technical in-formation department. In time, these people may assume writing duties anddevelop technical communications skills.

New and Emerging Technical Careers. Many of tomorrow's jobs are here today.We call them emerging careers: occupations denanding new knowledge and newskills, and offering new and exciting opportunities for those who are readyfor them.

New careers are emerging so rapidly, and in some cases, changing so continu-ously, that it is not possible to present for each new field standardizedinformation on its advantages and disadvantages, education or training needed,working conditions, numbers of workers, typical earnings, or where the jobwill be located.

Robot Technicians

The robotics industry gives every indication of taking off and moving aheadas fast as the computer industry did a few years ago. Business analystspredict an annual growth rate of over 30 percent through the rest of thisdecade. Forecasters predidt robot sales will range from $214 to $500 milliona year for the next five years.

If the robot industry is to, continue its projected growth, it must have anadequate supply of robot technicians and engineers.

The frontiers for robots and microprocessor (minicomputer) industries havemoved beyond creating mechanical workers to creating machines that think.This artificial intelligence is attempting to duplicate some of the brain'sfunction with machines.

Changes in the manner in which goOds are produced and services are providedalso affect occupational and industrial employment. For example, as an in-dustry automates production (installs robots), the mix of workers is likelyto change, which in turn will have different effects on an occupation'semployment growth.

Technological change is expected to affect employment in many industries andoccupations through the mid-1990's. The increasing use of robots in auto-mobile manufacturing, for example, is one factor expected to limit employmentgrowth in that industry. The increasing use of word-processing equipmentwill limit growth of employment of typists. Despite widespread technologicaladvances, however, employment should continue to increase in most industriesand occupations during the 1980's and early 1990's.

The continued growth in the importance of technology to national defense,office work, manufacturing, and other activities is expected to cause muchfaster than average employment growth for technologists and technicians suchas legal assistants, programmers, and electrical and electronics technicians.The employment opportunities for technologists and technicians should increase30 to 49 percent between 1982 and 1995.

PRINCIPLES 01 TECHNOLOGY: EQUIPMENT LIST

The following equipment list consists of three major sections. Thesesections are numbered below:

1. "Equipment List for Principles of Technology"This section contains the equipment for the hands-on labs. It has13 pages of information arranged in five columns. The first columnto the left gives the its number. The second column gives theitem name. The third column gives the number of its needed perset-up. Column four gives the desired specifications and a descrip-tion of the item. The last column indicates. Oat the item isof special design and therefore has a special db-fign sheet in thethird major section of this document.

2. "Principles of Technology: Demonstration Equipment"This section contains the equipment needed for the teacher demon-strations. It consists of 5 pages. Each page is divided into six -- --''-columns. These columns identify respectively: demonstration number,number of items needed, it name, description, item number thatcorrelates with the same item noted in the lab equipment list,and a designator that indicate* the item is of special design.

3. "Design Notes on Special Equipment"This section contains special design notes for special laboratoryequipment. It consists of 71 pages. These pages contain informa-tion on the special items of equipment needed for the 90 hands-onlabs. Rough drawings of the devices, parts lists, and sourcereferences are found in this section. (Special design itemsneeded in the teacher demonstrations are found in the teacher'sguide.)

EQUIPMENT COSTS

Based upon prices from 1984-85 catalogs, the cost for all equipmentneeded to conduct all 90 hands-on labs and all 49 teacher demonstrations is:.

$8,700 to $9,300 per set-up.

EXAMPLE:For a class of 20 (two students per lab station) or a class of 30 (three

students per lab station), ten lab stations would be needed. If two experi-ments are run concurrently during each lab period, only five sets of equip-ment will be needed. Total cost for five sets of equipment (10 stations perlab) will be:

$43,500 to $46,500.

NOTE: An alternative way to induce vibrations is to usea cam drive.

The 2"-diam x 3/16" thick disk can act as the cam.The 3/4" x 9/16" diam hub can be mounted off-center.This hub should be mounted no more than 1/4" off center.When the slug is mounted to the motor shaft and placedso that only the circumference of the disk is in contactwith the bottom shaker platform a cam action occurs.

He sure that the cam (off-center disk) contacts thebottom shaker platform where the axis of rotation(the motor shaft) and the circumference (the edge ofthe disk) are in closest approch.

A MESSAGE

TO THE

INDUSTRIAL ARTS TEACHERS AND ATUDENTS

The first Industrial Arts Students Fair in Louisiana was held on the campusof Northwestern State University of Natchitoches in 1947. This event continuedto serve Industrial Arts throughout the state for 20 years. Continued growthof Industrial Arts programs and increased student enrollment brought such pres-sures on the Northwestern State University Fair that it was deemed necessary toexpand the program. In 1967 a committee was formed to study the feasibility ofdividing the state into three geographic areas and establishing a 'fair in eacharea. Concurrently, a proposal was drafted and presented to a funding agencyrequesting financial support. The proposal suggested a three-year trial periodterminating with a "State Final Fair" to be held in conjunction with the annualconference of the Louisiana Association of Industrial Arts Clubs.

After two years of operation on this basis\, it was decided the IndustrialArts program in the state could justify a furth4r geographic breakdown and thatthe fair program was in need of more counseling: It was at this time that thename was changed from "Student Craftsman's Fair" to "Industrial Arts Students'Fair." Guidance and administration of the program were provided through theestablishment of an Advisory Council in 1970. The Advisory Council later be-came the Louisiana Industrial Arts Student Fair (LIASF) Executive Committee. Thiscommittee is composed of one representative from each of the four universitiesthat host an area fair, a teacher representative from each of these areas, theIndustrial Arts State Advisor, and the AIASA of Louisiana Executive Secretary. TheLIASF Executive Committee is charged with the responsibility of setting policy,establishing rules and regulations, and general administration of both area andstate fairs. Because of the revised Industrial Arts curriculum that was implementedin the 1984-85 school year, the Executive Committee found it necessary to reviseextensively this handbook so that it would be in compliance with the new curriculumstandards.

The primary purpose of the Fair is to promote high standards of craftsmanshipand scholarship through competition in the various instructional areas and activ-ities related to Industrial Arts. Benefits to the student include increasedmotivation, intellectual growth, a better understanding of industry and technology,fellowship with other students, visits to university campuses, and participationin leadership programs at the State Conference.

Any Louisiana Industrial Arts student who meets the requirements stated in theregulations governing the fair may participate. However, maximal benefit will beobtained by participating in the fair as a member of an organized Industrial Artsclub affiliated with the Louisiana Industrial Arts Student Association.

Many people have worked to make the fair a worthwhile experience. We encourageyou, the Industrial Arts teachers and students of Louisiana, to take full advantageof its benefits. Only through your active support and participation can itaccomplish its purposes.

GENERAL INFORMATION

Area Fairs

The Louisiana Industrial Arts Student Area Fairs are conducted during themonth of April. These Fairs are held at the following Universities:

Area Advisor

Dr. Thomas ;:pplerMr. Mickey HebertDr. Vincent KuetemeyerDr. Jerry Parish

Student winners (1st, 2nd, 3rd, and 4th) in the Area Fairs are eligible tocompete in the State finals which will be held in'the latter part of April orfirst week of May. The location of LIASF (State Level) will be in Baton Rougeunless otherwise notified.

LIASF Competition

All competition, unless otherwise noted herein, will be judged on the premisethat what a student knows about the area that is entered is equally as important aswhat the student can do in the area. Winning in an area such as, Basic Woods (OW)will therefore require a good understanding of the material covered in the statecurriculum guide as well as demonstrated competencies in as many differentoperations as feasibly possible. In judging entries (if all other aspects ofmaking the projects are equal) the better entry is the one that,uses themost processes as recommended or covered in.the state curriculum guide. "Otheraspects" include excellence in design, utility, craftsmanship, and ingenuity.Winners will be selected by equally (50-50) evaluating test and project scoresat the Area and State Fairs. The decisions of the judges are final. It is hopedthat the teachers will stress the objectives of the Fair program and place lessemphasis on winning. Teaching just for the Fair is not educationally sound. It

hoped rather that the Fair will be but an additional "tool" which a dedicatedteacher will use to motivate and teach. If the teachers will use the Fair in thisway, all the participants will be winners!

Annual Louisiana Industrial Arts Conference

The state finals of the LIASF will be held in conjunction with the annualAIASA of Louisiana conference.

Registration-- Area Fair

A sample registration fora is shown in the appendix. Each spring the fourarea Fair directors will mail out a similar form to the teachers in their area.A letter will be included to give pertinent information such as when, where, time,and rule changes for the Fair.

GENERAL RULES

1. Entrants may be any student enrolled in an Industrial. Arts class

a :.ouisiana private, public, or parochial junior or senior high school.

2. Students participating in Industrial Arts and vocational classesin the same area concurrently will not be eligible to enter in that area.

3. There is an entry fee to participate in the Fair. The amount eachyear rII1 12a indicated in the Fair letter sent out in the spring to the teachers.One fee is charged each entrant even if more than one classification is entered.

4. Whether they have a project or not, all students who go to an areaFair will register and take a test--either the specific area test or the generaltest.

5. All projects must be made in school under the supervision of anIndustrial Arts instructor.

6. Projects must have been started and completed in the current schoolyear.

7. Projects made from commercial kits are not eligible. Component partsshould be made by the student whenever reasonably possible and judges will evaluateaccordingly.

8. The cost of transporting the project to and from the Fair must be borneby the student, school, instructor, or some agency not associated with the Fair.The student should bring all necessary accessories to display his/her work.(Extension cords, AV equipment, etc.)

9. The judging will be done by Industrial Arts teachers and other qualifiedpersons such as representatives of industry. The project scores awarded by thejudges are final.

10. As many as three projects may be used to represent a student's entry ineach classification unless otherwise noted in the Fair rules governing each classi-fication. A student may enter three classifications.

11. In order for their students to be eligible to participate in the Fair,teachers must register them by the'indicated date on thl registration form. Thisregistration form and other information concerning the Fair is mailed to theteachers each Spring. If you have not received the Fair letter by the first ofApril, contact your Fair director immediately.

14. Judging will start immediately after the check-in deadline has passedand the Fair officials are caught up in the processing of entrants. No onewill be checked in after the judging starts.

15. All projects must be the work of one student, except for group projectsor where otherwise noted. Group projects are to be placed in a separate classifi-cation.

16. Student projects can only be entered in the classification whichrepresents the course in which enrolled. For example, the fair classification"Architectural Drafting" can only be entered by students enrolled in the StateDepartment of Education approved course (Bulletin 741) Architectural Drafting.The only exceptions to this rule are the fair classifications "Group Projects"and "Open."

17. Teachers should read the classification descriptions very carefullyprior to assigning a classification to a project. The judge will not re-classifya project which entered a classification above its level; projects below thelevel allowed will be disqualified. If a question of classification arises, oneshould contact the Area Fair Director for clarification.

18. The material covered in the minimum standards of a particular courseare to be the principle areas emphasis in producing a project to be judged in therespective classification at the Fair. A project which utilizes few basicconcepts or processes and stresses concepts and processes mostly beyond the normalexpectancy for the course will be low rated by the judges. An example would behaving inking drawings in the "Basic Technical Drafting" display when that areastresses mostly (or solely) pencil work. This entry would receive lower marksfor this improper emphasis.

19. In determining winners, the project and test are considered of equalvalue and therefore the total score is on a 50-50 basis. In the event of atotal score tie, the winner will be determined by who has the highest projectscore. In the event they are still tied, the judges will be ask to re-evaluatethe two projects in question. If a tie still exists, duplicate awards will bemade.

20. A dimensioned sketch (81/4 x 11) or drawing and a list: of operationsused is required to accompany each project or entry where applicable. No sketchis required for graphic arts. No list of operations is required for technicaldrafting.

21. There will not necessarily be an award given in each classification;the judges will decide which awards are to be given in the various classifications.

22. It is discourteous for teachers and students to leave the awards assemblybefore it is over. Everyone in attendance at the beginning is expected to stay tothe end of the assembly.
